Los refrigeradores - Cuba on the Rocks

Los refrigeradores

Režie: Thomas Lehner

Synopse

Cuba on the rocks. Cuba on ice. Naturally it´s served in cocktails at the beach bar. But for the island´s residents, keeping things in a cold, solid stateis a matter of survival and constitutes a daily struggle. Refrigerators are passed down from one generation to another, caringly maintained and restored. They form the centre of the household and confront their owners with the energy woes of a land that finds itself isolated at the end of the Cold War, no longer able to trade sugar for oil: Ice is civilization.
